Washington Sun: The heavy defeat of the Republicans sets a new agenda for Trump. Sources in the Republican Party revealed that Donald Trump, the President of the United States, may take his focus away from legislative battles after the Democrats' victory in the House of Representatives and the Senate and focus on his personal legacy and construction and development projects in Washington in the last two years of his presidency. The "Washington Sun" quoted a Republican strategist who said before the election that Democratic control of Congress could force Trump to lose interest in political and legislative battles, adding that the president "will not really care about anything after November and will focus solely on his legacy." Given that the president's legislative agenda has been undermined by the loss of the Republican majority in Congress, observers expect Trump to rely more on his executive powers, issuing executive orders and using his powers to grant presidential pardons.
